Rose Water Course
The rose water originated in Persia (present-day Iran). In fact, even today, 90% of the world's rose water comes from Iran. One of the most ancient flowers, roses originated in Central Asia and spread from there.
In Greek and Roman culture, roses were revered as symbols of love and beauty. Roses stood as a symbol for the Greek goddess Aphrodite and her Roman equivalent, Venus. In Greek mythology, rose bushes were said to bloom from the ground through the tears and blood of Aphrodite and her lover, Adonis.
The name Rosewater came from the beverage of the same name, made by soaking rose flower petals in water. It is a light, pink blush hue that is created by mixing a bit of red with white. Rosewater is typically associated with love, empathy, attraction, and femininity.
